autonomous drive

Nissan GTR

Automated lane controls and highway traffic management systems. These two items are part of the autonomous drive systems. These technologies are to enhance road safety and driving conditions.

Nissan president and CEO stated in a press conference that these two technologies will be available by the end of 2016. He went on to say that 1.5 million Nissan vehicles will be connected by that time.

Nissan has put the auto industry on notice they will take a leadership role in vehicle automation. Nissan's approach is different than Google's self-driving car concept. With Nissan, the driver remains in control rather than with non-human intervention technology.
